The DR1 Daily News wrongly posted on Friday that the distance up the Pico Duarte, the largest mountain in the Caribbean, is 3,175 feet. Wrong. It’s 3,175 meters. We appreciate that several readers wrote to alert us of the mistake. The correction was made on the web page on Friday, but we had to wait for this Monday issue to notify all about the mistaken distance indicating term. The item we are correcting commented on the National Department of Parks implementing a shorter way to get to the top. (www.dr1.com/daily/news032400.shtml)
